  Well, let's face it, I don't have a Windows box, no Cygwin nor MSC
compilers to test. So Igor and Robert have to agree to exchange a couple
of mail and if possible end up with a single patch w.r.t CVS which will
work on both setups. If the full toolchain for cygwin is not really ready
for building shared libs, then it might be safer to stay within the
boundaries of what most users have installed. I would really like to see
a single patch which will work for both compiler, with and without shared
lib suport. If this can be done then I will be perfectly happy to take the 
patch. It's not terribly urgent, both MSC and Cygwin prepackaged version have
their own channel for distribution, simply ship when it's unified and ready.

  Makes sense ?
